This is something that has got me time and time again. Since the default folder from a camera is DCIM, in other OSes it just created the new subfolders within when copying. In Mac OS it kill the original. thank god for time machine. The only reason I can see is when an App is updated by overwriting (sincles apps are just folders with .app at the end of the name). In this case, a merge is not what is desired. But in nearly every other case, at least for me, it usually it. A Merge button is the perfect answer to this, then diehards will be happy, but switchers won't get caught out.
